Cut One: Congress Doesn’t Want to Do Any Work
Who: Tom Fitton, Judicial Watch president

Take-Away: “He [Trump] also has to get Congress back in the game, because Congress doesn’t want to do any work … so he really has to show leadership frankly for two branches of government.” [35 seconds]


Cut Two: We Are Here to Obliterate ISIS
Who: Dr. Sebastian Gorka, deputy assistant to the president

Take-Away: “When it comes to national security its really quite simple, the number one priority is to secure the boarder … we are here to obliterate the Islamic State, we are here – as the president said today – to wipe them off the face of the Earth.” [28 seconds]


Cut Three: We Have a Crisis with Criminal Illegal Aliens
Who: Sheriff David Clarke, Milwaukee County, WI

Take-Away: “We have a crisis in the United States with criminal illegal aliens – criminal illegal aliens. And President Donald Trump has made it clear that’s who he’s going after first. … Let’s be honest – this has transcended administrations both Democrat and Republican.” [52 seconds]
